Renault's RS18 Might Be Too Hot To Handle

Renault's CTO Bob Bell has admitted that the new RS18 might have some cooling problems, after trying to find more aerodynamic perfomance over the off-season with the new design of the 2018-car.

The French team already saw a bump in performance after introducing an update on the aerodynamics package at the British Grand Prix last season. The new rules however, stating that teams can only use three power units instead of four, could pose a problem for the new car. Bell explains the effects it might have on the RS18.

"It can effect some of the thermal conditions we have to meet on integrating the power unit into the chassis, but not to any great extent," the British engineer explained.
